Podcasts about making decisions

I'm pulling back the curtain on a life-changing lesson I got from one of my coaches that shook me to my core—in the best way possible. This isn't just another motivational fluff piece; we're diving deep into the truth that changed everything for me: radical ownership. Yep, the moment I stopped blaming outside circumstances and took full, fierce responsibility for my life, everything shifted. From how I show up in my business to the way I chase my goals, this mindset flipped the script—and it can do the same for you. We're unpacking exactly what embracing the process looks like (spoiler: it's not linear, but it is worth it), and I'm giving you the lowdown on how to make clear, confident decisions even when life feels like a chaotic mess. And let's talk about boundaries—specifically, saying a big, unapologetic NO to the distractions, people, and habits that block your greatness. This episode is your permission slip to stop playing small and start acting like the CEO of your damn life. Because when you start practicing radical ownership? You stop waiting for clarity and start creating momentum.

Your discomfort with extractive leadership is your superpower.Why the world needs therapists to lead NOW If you don't step into leadership, coaches with no trauma training will. Your resistance to power is what makes you trustworthy to hold it.The clinical skills you already have that translate to CEO-level leadership Case formulation = strategic planning. Dual awareness = managing complexity. Boundaries = sustainable delegation.A therapist-safe decision-making framework Values × Capacity × Vision—how to make choices that honour your nervous system and long-term vision.This Episode is for You If:→ The word "CEO" makes you want to hide under a blanket → You're drowning in decisions but every choice feels exhausting → You want to lead ethically without burning out → You're tired of business advice that ignores your nervous system → You know you need to step into leadership but don't know how to do it authentically → You're ready to make decisions from alignment instead of urgencyKey Takeaways:✨ Your resistance to traditional leadership models is wisdom, not weakness ✨ You already have CEO-level skills—you just need to recognize them ✨ The world desperately needs leaders who understand nervous system regulation, power dynamics, and ethics ✨ Sustainable leadership feels spacious in your body, not contractive ✨ The best decisions align with your values, capacity, AND visionLinks & Resources Mentioned:

In this episode, we dive deep into what it really means to choose creativity, rather than simply waiting for inspiration to strike. We open with the fascinating origin story of Photoshop—how a grad student's simple problem-solving evolved, through deliberate choices and refinement, into a revolutionary creative tool. This story sets the stage for this episode's exploration of how intentional actions, not just spontaneous bursts, drive meaningful creative outcomes.We're joined by Zorana Ivcevic Pringle, senior research scientist at the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and author of the new book, The Creativity Choice: The Science of Making Decisions to Turn Ideas into Action. Zorana shares insights from her 25 years of creativity research, focusing especially on the overlooked emotional aspects of creative work. We discuss why creativity is about continuous, intentional choices—both big and small—that help us make progress, manage our energy, and use our emotions as information.Together, we unpack actionable strategies to deliberately foster creativity in high-pressure environments, the science behind emotional rhythms and productivity, and how tools like generative AI fit into the evolving landscape of creative work. Zorana also offers a unique perspective on matching your creative tasks to your emotional state and daily energy rhythms.Five Key Learnings from the Episode:Intentional Creativity Over Inspiration: Waiting for flashes of inspiration is risky—real creative progress comes from deliberate, systematic practices and choices.Emotions as Informational Tools: Emotions aren't just happening to us—they're signals we can decode and use to drive creative action and problem solving.Creative Rhythm Is Personal: Everyone's daily emotional and energy cycles are different. Understanding and aligning your creative tasks to these rhythms leads to better results.Build Your Creative Infrastructure: Sustainable creativity requires supportive systems—idea capture, regular review, and collaborative feedback structures are essential.AI Is a Tool, Not a Replacement: Generative AI can assist with certain creative tasks, but the essential human skill of “problem finding”—asking the right questions—remains at the heart of true creativity.Get weekly articles to your inbox at BraveFocusedBrilliant.com.Mentioned in this episode:NEW BOOK!

Every pregnant person deserves the information—and support—they need to make truly informed decisions about labor induction. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Dr. Ann Peralta and Kari Radoff, CNM, co-creators of Partner to Decide, a nonprofit initiative improving decision-making in perinatal care. They discuss the creation of their free, multilingual decision aid that supports families in understanding their options around routine induction of labor—and empowers them to advocate for their values, preferences, and autonomy.   Ann shares how her own birth experience, shaped by access to education and privilege, sparked the creation of the tool. Kari offers insight into how the decision aid has changed conversations in clinical settings—bringing clarity, reducing bias, and fostering truly shared decision-making. Together, they illuminate how access to balanced information can reduce anxiety, improve trust, and shift the culture of perinatal care.   (03:02) What Is a Decision Aid and Why It Matters (07:12) Ann's Birth Story and the Origins of Partner to Decide (11:09) Gaps in Shared Decision-Making from a Provider's Perspective (14:24) Personal Values, Intuition, and Cultural Differences (18:19) Designing the Decision Aid with Equity and Accessibility (23:49) The Power of Absolute vs. Relative Risk in Birth Conversations (25:01) Surprising Patient Feedback: From Access to Empowerment (30:31) Provider Reflections and Challenging Bias (36:11) Why “Routine” Induction Language Matters (43:59) How to Respond to Pressure or Coercion Around Induction (46:16) How to Access the Free Decision Aid and Support New Tools   Resources Access the free Induction of Labor Decision Aid in seven languages: www.inductiondecisionaid.org Learn more about the nonprofit: www.partnertodecide.org For more information about Evidence Based Birth® and a crash course on evidence based care, visit www.ebbirth.com.

Evolutionary psychologist, Doug Lisle, PhD discusses listener questions with co-host, Nathan Gershfeld. 0:00 Teaser Clips & Intro 01:39 Q1: I've alerted my wife that she has distortions, but she still has them! 18:53 Irrational emotions vs distortions 29:48 Q2: Why would someone complain about their job but do nothing differently? 47:51 Q3: How can I get over the loss of my husband? 57:33 Final thoughts Q1: Dear Dr Lisle, pop psychology advises men to validate their wives emotions but how do I validate something that is objectively invalid. I have taken your advice and have tried explaining to her that she has distortions in her personality that cause her to screw her perspective in a way that creates irrational emotions but that only makes her more angry. How can you get someone to see that they are interpreting reality incorrectly?   Q2: Why would a person constantly complain, get good advice and solutions, then do absolutely nothing? A person I know works a job they hate, that takes way too much time off them, and pays far to little. They complain bitterly and regularly to friends and family, get all hyped about changing things up, then proceed to do nothing but get back to complaining. I'd like to not give a damn but unfortunately I live with this person.   Q3: How to get over loss of a loved one other than “time heals all wounds?” I'm 38 years old and I lost my husband 10 years ago. Since then I've isolated myself and pretty much knew for a fact that I would be single for life. I tried going on a few dates but I wasn't attracted to any of them because deep down I know that I am still in love with my husband, even though ten years have passed. I feel depressed because I often feel lonely, but it's not a loneliness that can be alleviated with friends or family, it's because I miss my husband. Is there anything I could do to move on?   X: @BeatYourGenes Web: www.beatyourgenes.org Doug Lisle, PhD www.esteemdynamics.com Nathan Gershfeld, DC www.fastingescape.com Intro & outro song: City of Happy Ones • Ferenc Hegedus Licensed for use Copyright Beat Your Genes Podcast

In this episode of Hub & Spoken, Jason Foster, CEO of Cynozure, goes solo and explores one of the most critical yet under-discussed business skills...decision making. Drawing on real-world examples, research, and personal experience, Jason unpacks why so many organisations struggle to make effective decisions, despite it being core to leadership, innovation, and progress. From decision paralysis to overconfidence, and data overload to gut instinct, he looks at the formal frameworks and informal dynamics that shape how choices are made across all levels of a business. The episode delves into the role of vision, bias, data literacy, and emotional intelligence, and outlines the essential skills leaders need to build confidence, clarity and adaptability into their decision-making culture. Whether you're leading a team, shaping strategy, or navigating change, this episode is packed with practical ideas to help you make better, faster, and more informed decisions.

Making Decisions for Future Asset Transfer and Peace of Mind

John from Illinois called in with a big question: Because Pope Francis has passed away, who’s running things at the Vatican in the meantime? Who's in Charge When There's No Pope? When a pope dies, things don’t go totally dark... but they do hit the brakes, hard. -The machinery of the Apostolic See basically grinds to a halt.(Think of it like putting the Vatican on “pause mode.”) -Enter the Camerlengo (Italian for Chamberlain), currently Cardinal Kevin Farrell, appointed by Pope Francis (RIP). His job is to oversee essential matters, like the transfer of the Pope’s body. What Keeps Going vs. What Freezes? Still running: -Basic operations in Vatican City (lights on, plumbing working, etc...) -Routine roles that don’t require papal authority. Frozen solid: -Naming new bishops or cardinals -Lifting papal-reserved excommunications -Big decisions like future World Youth Day locations -Canonizations -Anything else that needs a pope’s personal say-so. Basically, if it involves a signature that only the Holy Father can scribble, it’s not happening right now. So, How Does the Next Pope Get Picked? Patrick reminds us that no pope can hand-pick his successor (even if he whispers it to someone behind closed doors). The next Holy Father is chosen by the College of Cardinals, who gather in a conclave and pray for the Holy Spirit’s guidance. Patrick took us on a nostalgic trip through the papal timeline: -Most younger folks only really know Pope Francis. -A bit older? You remember Pope Benedict. -Older still? Pope St. John Paul II, elected in '78. -Some even remember the super-short 33-day reign of Pope John Paul I. As Patrick put it: memory fades, but the Church marches on. It’s been 2000 years, 266 popes, and counting... each one a successor of St. Peter. What Happens Next? We wait. The cardinals will convene, the white smoke will rise, and we’ll get a new Holy Father. Until then, the Church is calm, reverent, and steady. May we all trust in the Holy Spirit's guidance and maybe brush up on our pope trivia while we’re at it.

Some decisions have a long-lasting effect. Sometimes that effect is positive; Sometimes it's not. . When you decide to get into or out of something, it's vital you don't set yourself up for failure and regret. 

In contemporary society, we face more choices--and more decisions--than ever before. This can sometimes feel like a curse as much as it is also a blessing, especially for those of us struggle with indecisiveness.  In today's episode, we discuss mindsets around decision-making that can help us find more ease around the little decisions ("What should I order from the menu?") and the big decisions ("Should I quit my job?").  References: Dr. Russ Harris article about hard decisions Sheryl's next round of her course, "Trust Yourself," starting on May 17th The Healing Anxiety Workbook April's Gathering Gold bonus episode for the Patreon: Emotional Support for Spring Cleaning Marie Kondo Happenstance Theory of career development Past Lives (2023) The Serenity Prayer Join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/gatheringgold

Evolutionary psychologist, Doug Lisle, PhD discusses listener questions with co-host, Nathan Gershfeld. 0:00 Teaser Clips 0:32 Q1 Nephew is suicidal, but he called to tell me 09:19 The psychology of suicide 30:08 Follow up question from E355 37:20 Q2 My husband is addicted to marijuana – can he change? 53:07 Q3: I'm one month sober – can it last? 1:14:19 Conclusion Q1: What do you do when a family member calls you and tells you that they are suicidal?  Last night I received a phone call from my 35 year old nephew telling me he was suicidal.  Growing up he was my favorite nephew but I haven't seen him for over 20 year because he lives on the other side of the country and I was estranged from his father, my brother, who dies ten years ago. That's when his life fell apart.  Before that he was a very likeable, bright, college graduate, financially successful and an extremely fit and healthy young man.   Now he is obese, severely depressed, has an alcohol and gambling addiction and on multiple psych meds, just waiting to “get his meds right”.  He did read Anatomy of an Epidemic and did a 60 day stint in a rehab and tried AA but felt “he didn't need to be there”.  He was such a great kid so I'm heartbroken that his life has spiraled so out of control that he wants to end it.

In this episode, I'm exploring the sacred process of change—through the lens of yin and yang, action and stillness, doing and being. We're conditioned to believe that transformation has to be fast, loud, and driven. But true change? It often begins in stillness. It emerges when we slow down, listen within, and choose from clarity instead of fear. I share insights from my own healing and coaching path around how we relate to change, how cultural pressure can hijack our decision-making, and how feminine energy—when honored—offers a deeply intuitive way forward. This episode is a reminder that it's safe to pause. It's powerful to rest. And it's wise to wait for right alignment before taking action.

We're entering a future where AI isn't just supporting healthcare - it's shaping decisions, influencing outcomes, and acting on our behalf, often without us even realizing it. These systems are becoming digital twins of real people, powered by everything from lab results to behavior patterns, and the implications are massive. Jason Alan Snyder from Super Truth explains how your health data is being used to build digital versions of you - ones that can make decisions without your knowledge.

You can make a lot of decluttering progress without making any decisions at all. And if you follow my No Mess Decluttering Process, by the time you do have to […] The post 451: Decluttering without Making Decisions appeared first on Dana K. White: A Slob Comes Clean.

Listen to Drs Adam and Candice as they share on how to make decisions when you're activating life in the realm of faith!

Today, I talk about the transformative impact of involving children in decision-making, emphasizing how it fosters connection, reduces resistance, and builds confidence. I share a personal story about my youngest child's request to be consulted on family plans, which led me to incorporate his input. I highlight developmental research showing that children as young as three can express preferences, nurturing their autonomy and emotional regulation. I suggest offering simple choices for younger kids and involving older children in more complex decisions. Ultimately, I stress the importance of making children feel valued and heard, which strengthens trust and emotional safety within the family. SHOW NOTES: Loved this episode?
